conference concluded Friday with a resolve for a deliberate investment on Nigeria’s health security starting with drawing support for pharmaceutical and research agencies to produce locally developed vaccines.
Global health security aims to prevent, detect, and respond to infectious disease threats. In practice, this is limited to specific activities, including strengthening surveillance systems and improving risk communication. He also said he would provide the Council details of the investment in local vaccine production, the progress and challenges thus far.
The Minister further disclosed that the government is preparing to build one oxygen production plant in every state, while two would be in Lagos because of its high demand and one in the FCT. He said even before the COVID-19 pandemic, India was producing 50 per cent of the world’s needs for vaccines. Meanwhile, Ngozi Azodoh, director, Health Planning Research and Statistics, FMOH, said the pandemic had been a turning point not just in the health sector, but in every sector of human existence.
When they park the bulk Africa doorstep, this statement is coming. At the peak of COVID-19, everyone was thinking how to steal and hoard the aides provided. Imported agents from China and called them team of medical doctors to help us.
This is only worthy if the product will be result of local research & development rather than cut & paste from corrupt West. Never import poison to infect my people. They need food not fraudulent 'drugs'.
